The First One!!

First Father's Day for Ryan that is! I could go on and on, but I will just say that Ryan is amazing with his son. Sean loves him so much and I have fallen even more in love with ryan since he became a father! I love you Ryan!!!!!

Reflection

As Sean and I were on our walk today, and I was cradling my "belly" as I used to do when I was pregnant I started to remember what it was like and how I was feeling a few months ago. I loved being pregnant and remember feeling like I did not want it to end. Partially because I was scared about not knowing how to be a mom, but also in realizing how much things change. I really enjoy being able to go grab coffee with a friend on a whim or run to the grocery store if I forgot something for dinner. I knew these things would not be easy once the baby was here.
As I continued to walk however I realized that all those fears and anxieties disappeared the moment Sean was placed in my arms. I still want to go to coffee with my girlfriends, and miss the luxury of jotting out to the store, and I admit I have no idea what I am doing as a mom, but there has never been even a second since Sean's arrival that I wished I could go back to the way things were. I consider myself truly truly blessed to get to experience this new life.

We love this boy!

Isn't it amazing how much Sean has changed already? I mean check out those cheeks! It is crazy how much he has grown and developed into a little person in these last 40 days. We are having fun taking walks, visiting friends, hanging out, reading, etc. We love this boy!!!!!!!

One Month Old

Sean is one whole month old! It has gone by so fast, but it is already so hard to remember life without him. We are so in love with this little guy and are excited to fall even more in love in the months to come. He has changed so much in the last 30 days - he is already up to 8 pounds from the 6 lbs 3 oz he was after birth. He has grown out of almost all the premie clothes and is starting to fit into a few 0-3month things! Our boy is growing up! Here are some pictures of him around his one month birthday:

Here is Sean reading his favorite book. We think he is pretty much the smartest baby ever.
